    Why I never go to church

    Sounds like you would rather be a disciple of Christ than follow the modern religious system. How strange! ;)

    Secular music

    That's fine! Do you eat Christian food? Nothing is evil of itself....it depends on the person and what it is used for.

    There is no eternal punishment!

    The OP should read...I don't want to believe in an eternal punishment ...so there! ;)

    Secular music

    All that is not of faith is sin. Can you rejoice in the Lord while listening to the music? does it edify you in the inner man of faith? Those are better questions. It depends on the ears doing the listening.

    We should let the facts come out during the trial without any pre-conceived prejudice. Sounds boring...but it is the best way...

    The Blended Gospel of today

    This is true! If the ONLY reason we are given a chance by God is because the Jews rejected Jesus...then why not continuw with the law but with new people? Why the diccrepency? The truth is that the Jews rejected Jesus Christ as the means of accomplishing the law. Jesus did not come to destroy...

    Understanding The Second Resurrection

    I agree with this...it ain't over till it's over. The second rez is not just to condemnation but also to life...otherwise there would be no reason to open the book of life. :) It is only those whose names are NOT written in the book of life that are terminated. Just like those who have no ticket...

    The Gospel was changed by God:

    The bible says all men have sinned...not all men WILL sin. The carnal man WILL sin...but the spiritual man overcomes sin through faith in Christ. Basic gospel 101. :) ...and cut a new covenant through a new life in Christ that accomplishes the law. :)

    Growing In His Image & Likeness

    Holiness is not a lifestyle change...you can dress up a pig, but it will still desire the mud. Rather holiness is a NEW LIFE in Christ. This is the beginning of the salvation process of an entire stature in the semblance of Christ. Lifestyles are what men choose to live as...we don't choose...

    The Gospel was changed by God:

    Who accuses others of sin? You don't know what I do. Don't judge others from yourself. Do you believe the gospel 0r not?

    The Gospel was changed by God:

    grace is the God given strength to fulfill the commandments. Jesus overcame...and now He empowers us to overcome THROUGH Him and His power. Have you never read...to him that overcomes? We are thus empowered to walk in holiness and conquer the enemy in HIS name. So we are empowerted to WORK the...

    The Gospel was changed by God:

    ...as I believe you are also sincere in what you believe. But the gospel is far more than just a means of escape for sinners. Being sinners is our point of departure. We are forgiven of our past so that we can get on with a future IN God. The real question is the purpose of our salvation. Were...

    The Gospel was changed by God:

    What was hidden was the new creation in Christ that restores man to his previous fellowship with God. And a greater place yet, since God has joined Himself to men through Christ. Who could have foreseen that God Himself would fuse with His creation in order to create a "new man" that is made in...

    The Cost of Discipleship

    We are saved in order to be made fit for the kingdom. We must let everything we have and are go so that we may be found in Christ. If we only rely on what Jesus did on the cross...and did not follow Christ with the time we were given...then we will be rejected So that is why we must put the...

    Ephesians 2 - what does it mean to be saved by grace?

    We are saved by abiding in Christ....and living from His new life. His power (grace) is made perfect in our weakness. When we give up our carnal lives...His grace kicks in. Don't be fooled into thinking that Jesus is the lamb of men in order to just forgive sins in a general amnesty. The soul...

    We don't have kangaroos here because the igloos are too numerous and this impedes their freedom of movement...But back To the subject at hand...:)

    The Gospel was changed by God:

    Paul warned the Galatians to not resort to human efforts of the law after they had received grace....but to continue trusting God and having faith in His continuing provision of grace. Manna for one day cannot be kept over for the next (unless it was to be sabbath). "Give us this day our daily...

    Mind of the Spirit / Mind of the Flesh

    The presence of the grace of God in our spirits is able to save our souls if we continue in the salvation process till the end. 1Pe_1:5 Who are kept by the power of God through faith unto salvation ready to be revealed in the last time. 1Pe 1:9 Receiving the end of your faith, even the...

    Yes! Every region has it's local principalities that need to be identified. The danger is always syncretism (a mixture of Christ AND something else) It is like leaven that changes the message and the behaviour. A wise man once said...when you mix Christ with something else...it is always the...
